Colby Lewis and Mitch Moreland did their part last night to get the Rangers back into this World Series. Now it's up to Tommy Hunter and others to sustain the momentum Texas generated last night and knot the Fall Classic at two games a piece.

The Giants, though, have their own opportunity to seize control right back and take a commanding 3-1 series lead behind rookie left-hander Madison Bumgarner, who has pitched well so far during his first postseason. San Francisco is going with a different lineup tonight. Pat Burrell, who looked awful at the plate in Game 3, is out. Cody Ross moves to left field, with Nate Schierholtz taking over in right field. Aubrey Huff, meanwhile, will serve as DH tonight, leaving Travis Ishikawa at first base.

I'll try to share some comments between passing out candy and keeping an eye on the Steelers/Saints game. Should be a busy night. Enjoy the game and Happy Halloween!…

THE 106th WORLD SERIES — GAME 4

SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS at TEXAS RANGERS Where:Rangers Ballpark in Arlington

OMG I really hope Giants win. I can't have anything remotely connected to "Georgie" win. Sorry about the political comment but that's what I truly about the Rangers at the moment.Bochy should've listened to me. Anyways, Good luck Giants.

you mean as a replacement for Dunn? To be honest, I also liked his defense so far, especially the agility he has shown such as against Sanchez's couple of errant throws, the tag to Kinsler. Offense is a dip compared to Dunn but his numbers with RISP aren't so bad. Age is the only downside of Huff because he will be looking for a multi year deal coming off his career year I believe.

I'm of the flaming pinko political persuasion myself, but I'm not too crazy about the Bush-bashing. (At least not here, heh, heh.) HW was a fine amateur player in his days, and W is a true fan. If you want to hate the Rangers, there's always Bob Short to demonize.

that last strike call sure looked like the umpire was eager to leave the field. Not sure Hamilton went far in that third swing. Madison was definitely good tonight and made me look like a fool for not trusting him enough after game 3. Great overall job by Giants.

Yeah, the kid was looking good on the mound last night. Such poise, too. Would that the Nats will have such a good, young, homegrown rotation some day.sec3, when I saw the kids scrambling after the ball on the green, I said to myself, nobody gets 86'd *there.* heh.I'm not crazy about bashing, either, no matter which side of the aisle is involved. (I don't claim either party, myself; not that it should matter, particularly in this forum.) We've all sworn our allegiance to the Nats, eh? As a scorekeeping nerd, I do think it's pretty cool that Barbara Bush keeps score, and evidently in pen. Looked like she was using the card in the program. (I don't tend to like the in-program cards, myself, but rather the customized variety.)Last but not least, there were some awesome costumes last night, both at my front door and in the ballpark. Special props to the couple who'd made their own antlers out of cardboard. I always like the homemade costumes, and, as my husband noted, anyone can go out and buy a pair of antlers.

Two nice things about watching President George Bush throw out the firt pitch last night, 1) no White Sox cap on his head and 2) unlike some recent Presidential first pitches "W" doesn't throw like a girl. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Oh and I loved that Lyle Lovett rendition of the National Anthem!

This is why politics should be left out of sports blogs. Suffice it to say that, although I like their story (and the ginger ale celebration was a great touch), as of 8:00 pm Sunday I knew I was rooting for the Giants.That said, when I was at RFK and then-VP Dick Cheney threw out the first pitch (rather poorly, too) unlike many in the crowd I did NOT boo him. As the saying goes in the military, you salute the rank, not the person. That's something that people on any side of the fence could learn from.John C.
